    If a constriction occurs in a vein or artery, the heart will have to work considerably harder in order to produce a higher pressure drop and hence maintain the required blood flow rate. The diameter of a person’s left anterior descending artery has decreased by 10% due to arterial sclerosis. If the amount of blood pumped through this artery per unit time is the same as before the constriction developed, by what factor has the blood pressure drop (from one...

    In the normal region of an artery, the blood pressure is 100 mm Hg and the flow speed is 0.12m/s. By what percentage would the pressure drop in this artery as the blood (density 1.05 x 10^3 kg/m^3) enters a region that has been narrowed by atherosclerotic plaque to a cross-sectional area one fifth of normal? Assume there is no change in elevation of artery and viscosity is negligible
